    So after doing my 3inch suspension lift having some problems with the ABS when braking even if it's hard brake or soft makes an electrical noise AN pulls my steering wheel to the left just resonantly ABS light came on an it was my front left wheel speed sensor but when that senor went bad the noise stopped so then I got the new sensor on ABS light went off but it went back to the same problem with the noise AN the pulling of my steering wheel when coming to a complete stop. If anyone knows or can help thanks!

    IMO ABS on a 1Gen is a wast of time, I'd just disable it. Beyond that I'm not going to be much help. I'm sure someone on here knows how the ABS works better than I do...

    Most likely the ABS line got stretched and then broken during the install. Those ABS lines are like paper thin inside.

    When I got my steering rack, tie rods, ball joints done recently, along with a tire rotation and alignment, my abs started acting up as well. It drives me nuts 1/4 stops the abs activates for no reason. Is it really as easy as pulling the fuse to disable? Is it safe?

    I think the word your trying to use is AND. Also, there is a difference between NO and KNOW.

    Proper use of english is well accepted here on TW and will absolutely help us to understand your problem/offer solutions.

    It looks like @ekul310 is talking about @Bigcountry75 if you look at Post#4,7 &11.

    Looks like his phone might be the culprit. Damn auto correct does me dirty all the time as well. It kept changed "abs" to "and" which is why i was confused with the lack of a quote before lol

    Pulling the fuse will diable the ABS and as far as I can tell it will not effect any other system. As for "is it safe"... that is a mater of opinion. I don't have ABS on mine, it came that way from the factory.

    I was looking this.morning and mine has a fuse marked ABS as well as one marked ABS2. I guess I need to pull both fuses.

    I could be wrong and would need to check a wiring diagram to be sure but but pulling one of the 2 should be enough. I would guess one fuse is for sensors and the other is for the controler. Then the ABS light on your dash will be the next thing to deal with.
